Chicken Vegetable Soup

I don’t make soups very often, even though we really like them. I actually made this one night after Amber went to bed and reheated it for dinner the next day. While it was simmering that night, I kept thinking how delicious it smelled. And it ended up tasting really yummy. It is a thick soup, more of a stew, and I did add extra broth and crushed tomatoes and used frozen okra.

Ingredients

4 baked chicken breasts, diced into small chunks

1 1/2 cups cabbage, chopped

1 large carrot, chopped

1 cup okra, sliced

1 large onion, chopped

2 large celery stalks with leaves, chopped

1 15-oz. can of crushed tomatoes

1 14-oz. can fat-free chicken broth

1 1/2 teaspoons salt

1/4 teaspoon pepper

Directions

Place all ingredients, except chicken, in a large pan and simmer for one hour or until vegetables are soft. Add in chicken and heat thoroughly.
